Please keep my Dad in your prayers

[Sister Penny]

Dear Praying Brothers & Sisters in the Lord,
I am asking you to all please keep my Dad, Lyle in your prayers, last Wednesday he was admitted to the hospital with chest pains and he had been having a heart attack for the prior 2 days.

Upon admission to the ICU, his kidneys have shut down completely and he's now on dialysis and still in the ICU and the prognosis is still not very promising for him, he has pneumonia, congestive heart failure, fluid on his lungs and he's all but lost the will to keep fighting to live.

He's the only parent left and the oldest of his siblings that are still with us and the entire family is very worried.

I am not sure when I will be back online, I am home for just a day and then heading back to Kalamazoo.

My son is moving home from Oregon and he also can use prayers for a safe journey back, his name is Christopher.

Thank you all so very much for the prayers.

Love in the Lord,
Sister Penny & Family

Dear Prayerful Friends,
My Dad is finally out of the ICU, however, his kidneys have failed and he will be on dialysis the rest of his life, this constitutes going to the Dialysis Center 3 times a week for 4 hours each time, my sister and I both understand him and know that is not going to happen for long, as he is "ready to go" as he has told us both, so he sure still needs your prayers, he is a Christian, however, after losing our Mom, his brother and his son at such early ages, his faith is very distant...

Thank you all for continued praying.
Love,
Sister Penny

My dear praying friends,
The update on my Dad is still about the same. He has suffered heart damage from the heart attack, and also is now being treated for pneumonia, the hospital waited 8 days before treating that, as he went in with it. His kidneys have failed and he's doing dialysis 3 times a week now. He has been moved out of ICU and into a regular hospital room, however, his room-mate is not doing well and uses foul language, according to relatives that have been there to visit my Dad.

At this point, Dad wants to stop doing all of his business, he has over 30 rental homes, and I will be having to help out with his care 4 days a week, and more if my sister moves away from the area....so many decisions have to be prayed over.

Please keep praying!
God bless you and much love,
Sister Penny
